Thermal boundary resistance

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal boundary resistance at interfaces between helium and solids (Kapitza resistance) and thermal boundary resistances at interfaces interfaces between two solids are discussed for temperatures above 0.1 K. The apparent qualitative differences in the behavior of the boundary resistance in these two types of interfaces can be understood within the context of two limiting models of boundary resistance, the acoustic mismatch model, which assumes no scattering, and the diffuse mismatch model that all phonons incident on the interface will scatter.
